Bauman retires as GM of WESH
Cory Bergman December 20th, 2007
My first news director, Bill Bauman, is retiring as general manager of WESH in Orlando. Back in the early 90s, I worked for Bill at powerhouse KCRA, and his commitment to coverage was reflected in the station’s slogan, “Where the News Comes First.” Bill also brought serious news coverage to WESH. “To be recognized for providing superior coverage is what this business is all about,” Bauman said. “Our brand of news is something I’m very proud of.” Such a dedication to quality in local TV news is becoming less popular these days. We need more people like Bill to bring it back.

Cory, I was the Director of Creative Services for KCRA from 1988 to 1991. I, too, worked with Bill. If fact he and I could be found on the golf course most Saturday mornings. Do you have Bill’s email address? Would love to reconnect.
